Plan Assessment Metrics for Dose Painting in Stereotactic Radiosurgery
Purpose: As radiation therapy treatment precision increases with advancements in imaging and radiation delivery, dose painting treatment becomes increasingly feasible, where targets receive a nonuniform radiation dose.

Background Twelve years ago, a randomized trial demonstrated that a radiosurgery boost added to whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) improved intracerebral control (IC) in patients with one to three cerebral metastases. Overall survival (OS) was improved only

What's New? While treatment strategies for solid brain metastases have been relatively uniform across cancer subtypes, tailored approaches are warranted. In this observational study, intracranial recurrences after microsurgical resection occurred significantly earlier and more frequently at distant sites in patients with triple‐negative breast cancer ...

Boost Approaches in Patients Undergoing Postoperative Radiotherapy
ABSTRACT The use of breast conservation surgery for early‐stage breast cancer is common, and adjuvant radiotherapy is often recommended to reduce the risk of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence. Historical trials have used sequential boost techniques with favorable outcomes with reduction in local recurrence and acceptable cosmetic outcomes.

Simultaneous integrated boost using stereotactic radiosurgery for resected brain metastases: rationale, dosimetric parameters, and preliminary clinical outcomes [PDF]
Radiosurgery has been shown to reduce the rates of local recurrence in the postoperative bed after the resection of brain metastases, but the ideal radiation dose has not been well defined.To present dosimetric parameters and preliminary clinical outcomes for patients undergoing postoperative stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) with simultaneous integrated
